Because there is no news about this on the site
  , I will put it here.
When I say 'popular', I don't mean it in the sense of sales, although that is surely one aspect of the whole picture. 'Popular' in the sense of 'recognized'. Japanese manga-guide Kono manga ga sugoi! at the end of each year publishes a list of the best manga in public opinion - asking not random people from the street, but celebrities, magazine editors, people from bookstores, manga-clubs and so on. There are two categories: men's (shonen and seinen) and women's (shojo and josei). The both lists' top 10: - for men 1. Shingeki no kyojin - Hajime Isayama 2. Thermae Romae - Mari Yamazaki 3. Sayonara mo iwazu ni - Kentaro Ueno 4. One Piece - Eiichiro Oda 5. Hagane no renkinjutsushi (Fullmetal Alchemist) - Hiromu Arakawa 6. Otoyome gatari - Kaoru Mori 7. Drifters - Kouta Hirano 8. Bakuman - Tsugumi Oba/Takeshi Obata 9. I am a Hero - Kengo Hanazawa 10. Aku no hana (Flowers of Evil) - Shuzo Oshimi - for women 1. Her - Tomoko Yamashita 2. Don't Cry, Girl - Tomoko Yamashita 3. Kuragehime (Princess Jellyfish) - Akiko Higashimura 4. Chihayafuru - Yuki Suetsugu 4. Natsuyuki rendezvous - Haruka Kawachi (shares the 4th place) 6. Ooku - Fumi Yoshinaga 7. Utsubora - Asumiko Nakamura (I'm not sure if this is the correct transcription of the name) 8. Kiyoku yawaku - Ryo Ikuemi 9. Kimi ni todoke - Karuho Shina 10. Machi de uwasa no tengu no ko - Nao Iwamoto The greatest story of manga publishing in 2010. (although the year is not officially over yet) is the story of Shingeki no kyojin (The Attack of the Giants). I hope that this will boost curiosity for some of these titles.
